Chapter 761

Nicole stared intensely at Colton with a pale expression. At that moment, she thought how naïve she was to believe

that she would be able to cut ties with him. She hadn't expected him to have such an idea.

If he were to take custody of Hayden, I would die!

"Impossible!" Nicole refused with a grim expression.

Colton smiled and stepped forward, lifting her chin. Then, he said slowly, "Why not? You are getting married to

another man and having a child would be a burden. After all, Hayden would live unhappily if you were to give birth

to another child."

"No! Hayden will be my only child. Even if I marry someone else, I will not give him a child," Nicole denied.

Hearing her words, Colton chuckled and looked at her. "You can't promise that. Hayden will be in good hands if he's

with me. I can assure you that I won't marry another woman, and he will be the only heir of Gardner Corporation."

At that moment, Nicole's mind went blank, but she quickly realized something. Then, she looked at Colton and

gritted her teeth, saying, "There is bad blood between William and the Gardner Family. Moreover, Hayden is

William's grandson, so Old Mr. Benedict and Mr. Gardner will not treat him fairly!"

Colton smiled faintly and lowered his eyes, looking at Nicole's tense expression. "No matter what, he is my son, so

Dad won't mistreat him. Moreover, Mom and Wendy love him. Alternatively, I can let him stay in my mansion to

avoid being bullied, and I certainly won't let him call other women his mom."

When Nicole heard his words, she knew Colton was talking about her engagement with Zachary. At this moment,

she felt like she was shooting herself in the foot.

She glared at Colton and roared, "Don't overstep the line, Colton! You were never there for Hayden, nor have you

done your job as a father figure. Don't you feel embarrassed when you say those words righteously?"

"You're going to marry another man while taking him. Do you think you're doing what a mother is supposed to do,

Nicole?"

Faced with his rhetorical question, Nicole didn't know what to say. Thus, she decided to end the conversation by

saying, "Keep your nose out of my business. I am the one who gave birth to Hayden and raised him. I don't deny

that he wants you to be his Dad, but don't you ever think you can take him away from me!"

Compared to Nicole's nervous state, Colton appeared calm. "Think about it, Nicole. With the Gardner Family's

authority, if I were to file a lawsuit against you, who do you think will gain custody over Hayden?"

Listening to his words, Nicole felt shivers. Colton is right. The Gardner Family is a powerful existence here. It would



be a piece of cake for him to gain Hayden's custody. Unless… I move abroad.

While Nicole was in thought, Colton seemed to have known what she was thinking and smiled. "The patient can't be

transferred if they are still lying on the bed. If you take Hayden with you abroad, I wonder when the patient will die."

At that moment, Nicole's heart thumped wildly, and she looked at him. Her puffy eyes widened in disbelief. She

didn't expect Colton to threaten her with a person's life!

To be honest, it was rather effective. After all, she couldn't leave Betty alone and go abroad.

When he saw her hesitating, Colton smiled wickedly and asked, "Well, have you made up your mind?"
